There is nothing to winning, really. That is, if you happen to be blessed with a keen eye, an agile mind, and no scruples whatsoever.

The paperback is very interesting but I find it will never replace the hardcover book - it makes a very poor doorstop.

The only way to get rid of my fears is to make films about them.

Blondes make the best victims. They're like virgin snow that shows up the bloody footprints.

A woman who spends all day washing and cooking and ironing doesn't want to go to the movies to watch a film about a woman who spends all day washing and cooking and ironing.

For me, the cinema is not a slice of life, but a piece of cake.

I’m frightened of eggs, worse than frightened; they revolt me. That round white thing without any holes, and when you break it, inside there’s that yellow thing, round, without any holes… Brrr! Have you ever seen anything more revolting than an egg yolk breaking and spilling its yellow liquid? Blood is jolly, red. But egg yolk is yellow, revolting. I’ve never tasted it.
